Faith in Your Future: Frederick Morrisette, Working Men of Christ

Reentry Reframed

As a youth, Fred spent a great deal of time moving around due to being the youngest child in a military family. Following the separation of his parents, Fred and his mother settled in El Paso, Texas where his home life would feel anything but safe. As his mother's addiction spiraled out of control, Fred sought refuge in the streets. Having a strong sense of responsibility to keep his mother safe, even as a teenager, he felt a strong pull back to her. In an effort to regain her sobriety, the family moved to Kansas where they had extended family. By then, Fred had changed his people and places, not the things. He was struggling with his addiction and quickly became involved in the justice system by the age of 21-years-old. For 15/20 years, Fred describes what it was like as he "prisoned" through life. In segregation, a key in the form of a pamphlet made its way into his hands for Working Men of Christ Ministries. From there, you will need to hear for yourself how Fred has transformed his life through his faith and service to others. Now, as the Internal Operation Director for Working Men of Christ Ministry, Fred is back in the prison system throughout Kansas mentoring and providing a way out to others. As he leaves his past in the rearview with his incredible outlook, we cannot wait to see what his future holds!
